Roland TrueVIS LG-540 — UV Printer/Cutter for Signage & Visual Communication
Combining TrueVIS heritage, Print & Cut capabilities and the benefits of UV-LED printing, the Roland LG-540 adds a new dimension to graphic printing. Latest generation UV inks print onto a vast range of media and the cool-running LED lamps ensure optimum curing. Special inks such as White, Gloss and Printable Primer allow for premium finishes across many applications, while the additional Red and Orange inks produce high-quality print reproduction and simplified spot colour matching.
The LG-540 is a 1371 mm (54”) wide-format integrated printer/cutter that delivers both printing and contour cutting from a single device. With its dual staggered print heads, UV-LED curing system and 8-colour EUV5P ink system in 750 ml pouches, the LG-540 is built for signage and visual communication providers who need versatile, high-quality output on a wide range of substrates.
What Can the Roland TrueVIS LG-540 Produce?
The LG-540’s combination of UV printing and integrated cutting makes it exceptionally versatile. Applications include:
- Signage & Wayfinding: Durable UV-printed signs, directional panels and information graphics on self-adhesive vinyl, PVC and synthetic media — printed and contour-cut in a single workflow.
- Labels & Decals: Short-run and medium-run UV-printed labels, product decals and safety stickers with instant cure and scratch-resistant finish.
- Vehicle Wraps & Fleet Graphics: High-quality vehicle graphics with vibrant, durable UV inks and precision contour cutting for clean application.
- Window Graphics: Transparent and translucent window films, frosted effects and backlit graphics using White ink for opacity control.
- Speciality & Premium Finishes: Gloss spot varnish effects, textured finishes and White ink underprinting on coloured or transparent media for premium output.
- Packaging Prototypes & Mock-ups: UV-printed packaging prototypes with accurate colour reproduction and die-cut contours.
- Outdoor & Indoor Displays: Banners, posters, point-of-sale materials and exhibition graphics with UV-durable output.
Print & Cut Capability
The LG-540 integrates both printing and contour cutting in a single device, eliminating the need for separate cutting equipment. After printing, the built-in cutting system uses registration marks to perform accurate contour cuts, kiss cuts and through cuts — significantly reducing production time and improving registration accuracy compared with separate print-then-cut workflows.
- Cutting speed: 10 to 300 mm/s for flexible, media-appropriate cutting
- Blade force: 30 to 500 gf — suitable for a wide range of vinyl, film and synthetic media
- Cutting width: Up to 1346 mm (52.9 in.)
- Compatible blades: Roland CAMM-1 series blades
- Software resolution: 0.025 mm/step for precise cutting detail
UV-LED Printing Benefits
UV-LED curing provides significant advantages over solvent and latex printing technologies for many signage and graphics applications:
- Instant Curing: UV-LED lamps cure ink immediately on the media surface — output is dry and ready to handle, cut or apply straight off the printer.
- Cool-Running LEDs: Unlike mercury-vapour UV systems, UV-LED lamps run cool, preventing heat damage to sensitive or thin media and extending lamp life.
- Media Versatility: UV inks adhere to a much wider range of substrates than solvent or eco-solvent inks, including films, synthetics, rigid sheet stock and speciality materials.
- Energy Efficiency: UV-LED technology consumes significantly less power than traditional UV or heated drying systems.
- No Outgassing Period: Unlike solvent inks, UV-cured output requires no drying or outgassing time before laminating, cutting or application.
EUV5P Ink System — 8-Colour UV Inks in 750 ml Pouches
The LG-540 uses Roland DG’s ECO-UV (EUV5P) ink system, supplied in economical 750 ml pouches. The 8-colour ink set extends beyond standard CMYK to include speciality colours and finishes:
- Standard Process Colours: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black
- Extended Gamut: Red and Orange inks complement the CMYK colour gamut, delivering more vibrant colour reproduction and simplified spot colour matching without the need for custom ink mixing.
- White Ink: Enables opaque underprinting on transparent, coloured or metallic media for vivid graphics on non-white substrates.
- Gloss Ink: Adds spot varnish and gloss finish effects for premium tactile and visual impact.
- Printable Primer: Expands media compatibility by pre-treating substrates for improved ink adhesion on challenging materials.
- Multiple Configurations: The ink channel layout supports multiple colour configurations to match different application requirements.
